My Creative Scrapbook May Main Kit

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're having a great day! If you're looking for a great way to treat yourself I hope you consider trying a subscription to one of the My Creative Scrapbook monthly kits. They select the pattern papers and lots of coordinating supplies and deliver it straight to your front door so all you have to focus on is MAKING! Every month they have several kits to choose from.. their Main Kit, LE - Limited Edition, Creative Kit and Album Kit - so you can choose what's right for you!

This time I'm playing with the Main Kit that includes 12" papers and embellishments from Echo Park's "Born To Travel" Collection as well as a few others to surprise you. You'll also find die cuts, stickers, chipboard, and lots more! Everything is perfectly coordinated to work together and shipped directly to your door!

It's that time of year! The kids are out of school and the weather is perfect for a road trip. Maybe you love to camp, or are dreaming of a trip overseas. Whatever your wanderlust this kit has you covered!

The colors in the collection are bright and bold - think blue skies, green grass and colorful florals. My mind goes to the basic 8 pack of crayons or watercolors. The prints are plaid, stripe, and prints of scooters, geotags, maps and more.

The kit includes everything you need to make these cards. The only items I added were the card bases, solid cardstock papers, adhesives, and enamel dots and some number printed washi from my stash. You can incorporate you own favorite gems or sequins to add more sparkle to the designs.

This kit has lots of embellishments! I coat the stickers and adhesive chipboard pieces with baby powder to turn them into die cuts that I can move around without worrying about sticking them in the wrong place by accident. When I'm ready I adhere them with liquid adhesive.

I arrange the images on clear plastic sheets the size of my card front. This gives me a preview of what the finished card will look like before I commit and adhere everything in place. I can also slide pattern paper under the arrangement to see if my choices work well together.

I had lots of fun arranging the papers and elements. A simple trick to layers is to try to break up the patterns with solids, or to stack dark over light.

I invite you to join one of their monthly kit clubs and experience the possibilities that their coordinated kits offer. With plenty of innovative materials and ideas to jump start your imagination, preserving your memories and making cards will be effortless and enjoyable. You can see all of the different kits available this month here at My Creative Scrapbook.
